DAMAGE DONE BY THE ICE YES
TERDAY.
Collision Between the Steamers Cole
and Chesapsake-The Kate Adj
ans Also Damaged.

Ice bsgsn passing here on the river
Sunday morning, and by night the
surface Of the river Was covered from
bank to bank. The ice was newly
made, and steamboatmen thought
that it was only of local origin and
would amount to little. Yesterday,
however, the ice increased in guam
tity and was much heavier than that
which had passed on Sunday. own
ers of steamboats, that were in the
harbor then began to fear for the
safety of their boats, and at once
made preparations for the removal Of
their boats to safer barbors. The
tugs N. NJ. Jones and w. A. Williams
were employed by the Lses, and they
towed the steamers James Lee and
Ooshoma 10 a point above the mouth
Of Wolf river. The Rene Macready
and Ed Foster were towed over to
WEST Memphis and the CoEcordia
packet Gayoso went there with her
own steam. The sidewheel steamer
Enquiyer and the steTnwhesler Z. w.
Cole, which had for some time past
b en- lying lashed together at the
foot Of Jefferson, were to be
towed to West Memphis by
the towboat r. A. Speed. The latter
got up steam and showed up on the
ineide OF the two boats. The lines
holding the two boats to the shore
parted at the same tune the Speed
grounded her stern on shore. The
Cole aud Erqpirer hoated down
stream in the ice helpless. The cur
rent of the river showed the drifting
steamers in shore, and the Cole being
on the irsido, struck the sidewheel
steamer Chesapeake, and tore off the
nosing and sidehouee Of the latter
steamer and siso broke eight stanch-
ions and seven hog chains. This
collision threw the floating
steamers out into the river, and they
passed the r l. Cobb, lying just be-
low, without injuring her. The cur
rent again swung the two boats in
shore, and the Cole came in stern first
on the steamer Kate Adams, which was
lying ct the foot of Union street. The
wheel of the Cole was smashed, and
she came against the Adams with such
force that one Of the wheel arms pen
etrated the hull of the Adams and
cut a large hole in it, but it wss
above the water line and did
not prevent the steamer from leaving
last night. After colliding with the
Adams, tho Cole and Enquirer hoated
on down the river, and when near
Trezs want street were caught by the
r. A Speed, which had managed TO
get Eff pat, and were towed TO safe
harbor in West Memphis. The dam
age to the Chesapeake will amount to
about 500, and it will take at least
500 to repair the Cole. The damages
10 the X tie Adams will amount to
about $50. The Enquirer escaped
without injury.

RABBI SAMFIELD
Reelected for Five Years nj an In.
creased salary.

The congregation OF the Children OF
Israel mat in the ve5try Of the Poplar
Street Temple Sunday afternoon and
elected the following officers for the
ensuing year: Elias LoweDatsin pIe:-
ident, s GronRuer vice prssiden',
Sam Hirsch secretary, Sol. Vendig
warden, and the following trns'ess,
Messrs. l. Friedman, Sam Fol'z, Sol
Coleman, ii. Cohen, j., G. Pape, Sol.
Halle and Simon Jacobs.
Rabbi Ssmfeld was reelected min
lister at an increased salary for term
of five years and accepted the posi-
ton, although he has recently re-
ceived calls from other cities OF fiat
tering nature. The surprise Ct the
meeting was the preser tition to Sec
retary Sam HIsch of handsome sill
YER service, as a token OF the high APP
probation in which his services are
held. Mr.. Elias Lowenstein made
the presentation speech, end referred
in eloquent terms to the faithful and
efficient services of their secretary dur
ing period OF eight years, services
that were purely labor OF love, as no
salary is attached to the position. Mr..
Hirsch was speechless with amPzs-
ment, 80 utterly unexpected was the
compliment rendered him, and it was
a minute or two before he could mas
ter his emotion sufficiently to return
his thanks in a voice husky with deep
feeling. An adjournment to conve.
nient place followed, end Mr.. HirsCh's
health was toasted in bumpers OF
champagne.
The APPEAL congratulates the con-
gregation upon having secured the
valuable services of Rabbi Samdeld
for another term OF five years. Any
other result would have been accepted
with sense of personal loss, not only
by the members OF his congregation
but by his fellow citizens generally,
who hold him ia the highest esteem.
No man is better equipped for MS
work than he, nor could any one al
his place half 60 acceptably. Learned,
sincere, eloquent, devoted to the wei
fare OF his flock and always in the
front rank OF public benefdotors hi
is, indeed, a model minister, and tC
his cohfessedly high in ellectual gift
adds heart that il never deaf to tb'
appeals Of suffering humanity. II j
a pleasure to rec ord his success, anc
to feel that his presence for five year
more is assured to US.
